Wallenstein FX90 Skidding Winch | Arborist, Chainsaw & Tree …
WEBDec 25, 2005 — Midwest. Dec 19, 2013. #1. Several weeks ago we were hit by a tornado, It just plain devistated many of the tree's in my woodlots. It took two of us two full days of chainsawing to open the road to my back field and get the tree's off about 100 yards of fence. Anyway, rather than cutting roads in everywhere to skid them out with a tractor, i ...
3 point winch opinions? Farmi, Wallenstein, Others?
WEBFeb 25, 2015 — I can winch logs that are large enough to be a challenge to drive away with. Brands to check out are Farmi, Tajifun, Uniforest, Wallenstein, Igland and Norse. The Norse is the cheapest, as far as I know. Wallenstein has some nice standard features like a trailer hitch. Tajifun uses a band brake instead of a pawl like the others.
Which PTO logging winch would you recommend for a 40 HP …
WEBAug 7, 2015 — Wallenstein had some durability issues early on, from what I can gather, but are supposed to be rock solid now and the pricing is good. I rate Farmi above Wallenstein in the winches I'm looking at but the Farmi price over a Wallenstein just doesn't motivate me to spend the extra for the Farmi given that the Wallenstein fx65 and fx90 winches are ...
The Wallenstein Skidding Winch is... - arboristsite.com
WEBSep 9, 2015 — My first skidding of a decent sized log. After taking the photo I figured out how to better position the winch and chain for a safer skid. But damn does the FX90 make things easy. Tomorrow I'm going to throw it at a trio of unsafe leaners to see if I can at least unbunch their canopies. It is going to be a combo of throw line + winch a bit off ...
Wallenstein FX35 skid winch - Arborist, Chainsaw & Tree Work …
WEBApr 1, 2016 — A hydraulic winch can be fast or slow, strong or weak, just depends on how its setup. It takes lots of hyd flow to make a fast hydraulic winch with any power. Tractors dont have very large hyd capacities. This can cause overheating of the hydraulic oil and cause damage to the tractor.
Wallenstein FX120 worth it? - Arborist, Chainsaw & Tree Work Forum
WEBOct 6, 2015 — 1,180. Location. SW Wisconsin. Oct 6, 2015. #2. I bought a new FX-120 last year and paid $4600 with 3 chains and shipping. I am just a firewooder and sell about 20 cord a year and burn another 12 cord myself. It doesn't compare to the JD 540B I had before but it does a nice job.
Fransgard V-3004 Review and Prices Pros Cons
WEBAug 7, 2011 — The specs on that unit are just about the same as my Farmi JL290 unit. Fransgard is every bit as good as a Farmi or Norse, and Wallenstein for that matter. If you can get it for a good price, jump on it. They don't last long. I looked mine up and I paid $3,200 for the winch and protective screen back in 2007 if that helps.
3 point winch opinions? Farmi, Wallenstein, Others?
WEBFeb 10, 2017 — I paid $250.00 for it I have run it for about 8 years now and winch only about 10 cord tree length every year. I have never had any issues with this winch if it blew up today I would buy a new one tomorrow. That being said I would look at Norse, Wallenstein and Farmi, I would not get too worried about dealer …

WEBJan 31, 2009 — Turkeyslayer I have been following your thread, really nice set-up. I haven't checked into the Wallenstein, just what I have read here. Tried a dealer locate and came up with one Ontario. Really couldn't go wrong with either the Farmi or Wallenstein. I have alot of steep hilly ground and was looking at a winch for clean up firewood for personal ...
Farmi vs Wallenstein? | Arborist, Chainsaw & Tree Work Forum
WEBMar 22, 2008 — I don't want to beat a dead horse by asking the same question but I don't want to make a mistake either. Does anyone have a Wallenstein log winch? I just discovered this thing by looking in the Farm Trader and saw their ad. In comparison, the Wallenstein is heavier (170 pds.), cheaper by about...
